What could this throbing pain be next to my left ribs?

For nearly half a year I’ve had a pain on my left side. It’s generally below between my lowest and 2nd lowest left side rib – about an inch forward from dead-center left (10 o’clock). The pain is slightly below the surface of the skin. In the past it only was painful if I did a sudden jerking movement (such as jumping) or twisting too far to one direction . Now it noticable just walking around (today it is throbing as I type this).

I’ve had several doctor visits and have also had x-rays and a sonogram. There is no broken ribs and no spleen damage. The doctors do not know what it is. They doubt it is organ related. Initially they thought it could be a muscle pull (intercostal), but I have taken their advice and stopped exercising for 6 weeks, but the pain is still there.

Any ideas of what it is and what to do about it?

Thanks.

Why not flipped clock faces in the Southern hemisphere?

Since water swirls the opposite direction in the Southern hemisphere, why don’t we make clocks that rotate counter clockwise for people who live and travel there?
